One Winged Angel and Born Depressed.
Bitchin' Summer by Agent Orange!
Is "bitchin" cool again??
The Mezzanine Massive Attack album.
The whole thing. First song to the last. Just listen to it.
And if you finish that: Dark Side of the Moon from Floyd.
And if you finish that, Sound and Fury from Sturgill Simpson. Bonus points if you have Netflix and watch the animated it's written for (ultra baller)
Hell yes. Trip-hop in general.
I usually find myself riding my bicycle long distances when elevated.
Quick stuff is fun, Reggie Watts is great in Wajatta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AME3l9pfukc
How about crossing DnB with Bossa? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYLMeQrhbac
Maggot Brain by Funkadelic is life altering
I was gonna say Cosmic Slop, especially their Houston 1976 live version. But Maggot Brain is awsome too.
Virtually any Shpongle track.
the album Awoke from Random Rab is nice for daytime sesh. for nighttime I have been going for a lot of Godspeed you black emperor, any album.
Tiny Dancer by Elton John
Two Bonobo tracks have really been catching me lately. Stay the same and Shadow.

Put on Pink Floyd at maximum volume. Doesn't even matter what album. It will be amazing.
My problem with this is ive listened to pink floyd my whole life. I've been told how amazing it is but have never experienced something that everyone else experiences.
It's like someone telling me they believe in ghosts because of an experience they have had that i haven't and then telling me the story of their experience. Great story, but needs that experience to make it real.
So Floyd is an obvious suggestion, and that is not in any way meant to deter anyone from seeking it, but is one that is potentially problematic if it has been over hyped before you experience it in an shattered state of mind.
As a came to it in middle age fledgling stoner i feel the closest i can get to a stoned floyd experience that other people seem to be able to have, only really happens for me with finding something new that im not already familiar with, or at least that i dont have a long history with built up expectations. But not having had that stoned Floyd experience I've heard so much about, i could be way off if my amazing experiences with other music aren't the same type of experience.
(Like we can all share experiences about a type of food, like spaghetti as an example, we can collectively recognize the spaghetti experience but ill never find my mom s spaghetti anywhere other than my mom's table, even if i follow her recipe, even if the only detectable difference is that i know she didn't make it, it won't be the same experience)
But i think the pursuit of that experience even if you don't find it is still awesome. And here is a picture of me trying to have that experience with a couple extra steps: outside in a hammock with a "cosmic" laser projector pointed at a patio cover. Highly recommend
Edit: spelling. Also shattered was meant to be altered but left it as is because it was a fun error that i liked
Aenema by Tool gets me in the groove.
I prefer Puscifer to Tool, and I can’t explain why. Queen B, Momma Sed, and Drunk with Power are soooo good.
I should give them another go. My half assed research involved googling them and listening to some snippets of songs. None of them really grabbed me, so I didn't dig much deeper.
I'll look up what you mentioned. Thanks!
It’s my favorite stuff Maynard did! Though there are some bangin Tool songs. Puscifer’s newer stuff doesn’t hit with me, but their first couple albums are amazing. V/Vagina and Conditions of my Parole are sick.
Transcendental Cha Cha Cha, makes you feel high, while sober.
Ocean by John Butler. It aligns the cells of my brain.
I also put as many of these as I could on a playlist. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3yDebBDknLyG84c1eXpPsR?pt=96da93b318a3101e151bd6dbb9abc944&pi=rDJ3vjrBRUe-i
I dunno but now I wanna hear “Bitchin’ Camero” by The Dead Milkmen
Anything by Shpongle, but here's a good album to put on! Nothing Lasts... But Nothing is Lost. Fantastic psychedelic trance music with influence from world music.
+1 for anything Shpongle related. When I'm at a 9, The Seventh Revelation makes me feel like I'm tripping
Up Top by Busty and the Bass is a great one if you're looking for some tasty bass.
Captain Hook by Vulfpeck is also a favorite.
Caretaker everywhere at the end of time. It'll really set a mood.
Sleep - Sonic Titan. Put some headphones on and listen to the incredible bass lines.
Or anything else in their discography really
Must be this mix of 8bit videogame dub music 🕹🎶🌴
I would never have said i love reggae, but i love 8 bit and this is very good. I will now say that i love this reggae.
Thanks for sharing
The rhythm isn't hard to find, and the big atmospheric blooms will send you flying.
Something worse than wingdings
Not a song, but: Operation: Mindcrime (full album) by Queensrÿche has long been my favorite journey to take while baked.
It tells a story through song, spoken words, and sound effects. So get baked, grab your best headphones, and take a journey!
(Feel free to find this on a better audio source!)
Arcadia by Goose. It's like a kaleidoscope.
